Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 21, 2013
Transcript:
Rat: What kind of poker game is this? We've got no @#*@#* cigars. Duck: I have some old ones at home. Or I can buy some new ones at the store. Rat: Fine. And where are the @#*@#* poker chips? Goat: I can borrow some form my neighbor. They're all blue, if that's okay. Goat: Something old! Something new! Something borrowed! Something blue! Rat: Some guys you just don't invite to poker night.

A comedy tonight!…………………………….Pig, at any rate, is pretty much of a joke. I am a bit surprised that Goat is a party to the regular poker night group.

I was hoping that Stephan was building up to a juicy pun – for puns or pun-like thingies, see today’s Frank and Ernest (here at Gocomics), or Mother Goose & Grimm http://www.seattlepi.com/comics-and-games/

A friend of mine hated cigars so I gave him a candy bar.

Maybe he should log on and spend the next 2 days watching ALL the old Charlie Chan movies. New material from old classics!!

Personally, I"m surprised Pastis didn’t receive a pummeling, or threat of one, in the last panel.

I thought the “blue” was Rat’s language. No need to color the chips.
